Conference Weekend


I feel like I'm to the point in the semester where all I can do is count down. 7 more days of classes. 4 more MWF classes. 3 more T/Th classes. 4 more Shakespeare plays to read. 2 Shakespeare movies to watch. 2 495 reading assignments. 3 more 291 reading assignments. 2 more 291 quizzes. 3 papers to write. 1 more test. 3 web design assignments. 1 final project left in 330. 3 finals. 1 final portfolio. 23 more days until I leave for London. I can make it!

The funny thing is, this happens every semester. I get really stressed out and really excited for the semester to be over. I count down the days, the assignments. I make lists with little boxes to check off, and I cross things off like little victories. And Then I walk out of the last class and it always feels like it came too fast. Like it wasn't that bad. Like I'll actually kind of miss it! Then I take my finals and I'm left with nothing to do but wait until the next semester begins. I'm pretty sure I blog something like this entry every single semester. Oh, the cycles of life.

I'm in Lehi for conference weekend with Christie, and I'm not sure I'll be able to reenter life after sitting around in my pajamas and drinking IBC root beer. Life is so hard :)

I think I can safely say that I won't miss it.

Yes, I must concur. I forgot to mention that. But definitely a good idea to keep an adventure log, and what better place than your blog?
